Being As An Ocean - Judas, Our Brother lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

My heart began to race as I drank of ur blood

And again I felt the sleep wash over me like a flood

Blessed & anointed, I stepped out in ur name

Blinded, I thought I carried purpose like a flame

I'm struck deaf & dumb, alone among the olives

How could I have just given up the Lamb without blemish, spotless?

I thought I'd be the one to spring the trap

That knowin' look in Yr eye as ya handed me the cup

Bearer of ur shinin' light, it's all been buildin' to this

How was I so blind?

(Verse 2)

Realization has pulled the veil from eyes

Sleep has given way to cold sobriety

Now I finally see that ur purpose wasn't revolution

Rather, unconditional, luvin' inclusion

I watched the rock sheath his weapon

An emphatic hand on the head of the Roman

I don't want their tainted money

That was never the motivation

My spring on the latch, failed midnight incursion

I thought I knew The Word, heeded ur lessons

But my pride has left me in ruins

(Bridge)

How was I so blind? How did I miss it?

How was I so blind? How did I miss it?

(Chorus)

Oh, Brother Judas, woe to thee!

I've handed ova my Savior, damned to hang from a tree

Oh, Brother Jesus, ur name blessed be

I will hang with thee, I will hang with thee!

Oh, Brother Judas, woe to thee! (How was I so blind?)

I've handed ova my Savior, damned to hang from a tree (How did I miss it?)

Oh, Brother Jesus, ur name blessed be (How was I so blind?)

I will hang with thee, I will hang with thee! (How did I miss it?)
